Amelia's Paid Man

S2 - EPISODE 104

Andrew kept staring at the photo of Adit stuck to the tombstone, his tears flowing. Her tongue clenched tightly.

"Who are you?"

An old man asked Andrew. Andrew was surprised, looking at someone standing next to him. Andrew stood wiping his tears. Andrew looked at the old man beside him.

"Adith?"

Greet the old man when he saw Andrew. Andrew smiled faintly explaining in a soft voice.

Andrew: sorry grandpa, I'm Andrew. Not Adit. Grandpa knows my papa? I mean Adit?

The old man widened his eyes to look at Andrew in the face. His hands gently touched Andrew's face.

"So you're Andrew? Adit's son? I'm your papa's uncle, son. It's amazing that your faces are so similar"

Andrew: grandpa is papa's uncle?

"She just call Grandpa Tino"

Andrew: grandpa came here, alone?

Tino: yes, every year I come to remember your father's death.

Andrew: cake, may I ask?

Tino: what's wrong?

Did papa really kill someone?

Tino: hmm. that's a long time ago, what are you asking. Live well, son. Aren't you comfortable with Abed?

Andrew: do you know Papa Abed?

Tino: of course know. Grandpa also knows Brian, Brian is your father's best friend and also your mother's former lover.

Andrew: what? Uncle Brian's ex-boyfriend mom? And papa's best friend?

Tino: yes, if told takes a long time. At least grandpa was happy. Finally Abed ventured to reveal the truth about you. If you have a papa and a biological mother, even if they're gone.

Tino put down the flowers she brought and prayed. His eyes closed praying for Adit. Andrew closed his eyes, offering a prayer to Adit. Finished praying Andrew went back to talk to Tino.

Andrew: cake, tell me! How can papa be like this.

Tino: ask your papa. Grandfather only heard the story, grandfather didn't want there to be any misunderstanding. Enough of your grandparents who were victims of misunderstandings.

Andrew: what do you mean grandpa?

Tino: (clapping Andrew's shoulder) there's no point in bringing up Andrew's past. Just pray for your mom and dad. Pray for them to be calm in nature. Not everything you hear is the truth. Before hurting yourself, do not easily believe in the words of others. Every word that comes out of some people is different. Find the truth first. Do not let you regret. Excuse me, if there is time to visit grandfather's house.

Andrew: where's grandpa's house?

Tino: near from the city park. The simple house with a flower garden in front of it was the grandfather's house. And yes, you are growing healthy and strong. Your parasites are handsome, more than your papa.

Andrew: cake, Andrew must have come to see grandfather.

Tino: come, because grandfather is also not a stranger. Your grandfather was also your grandfather.

Tino smiled and walked slowly away from the funeral. Andrew looked at Tino's back. Andrew looked back at the photo of Adit.

Andrew: I'll find the truth. Sooner or later I'll know everything.

Andrew turned and left. Andrew walked to Amanda's funeral.

♡♡♡♡♡

Brian and his family came to Abed's house. Brian and Abed want to straighten out a misunderstanding with Andrew.

Andrew stood in front of Abed's office. Knock on the door slowly.

Andrew opened the door and entered the room. Andrew closed the door, walking slowly towards Abed and Brian who were already waiting on the sofa.

Brian: hi Andrew. Sit down, there's something uncle wants to tell you.

Andrew was silent and sat down beside Brian. Abed continued to look at Andrew, his eyes already glazed over. Brian let out a long sigh and started to open his voice.

Brian: your uncle and your father called you because we're going to explain everything about your father and your mother Abdrew. Uncle is your mom's friend. We are from the same country, and from the same city. Your dad and I were best friends when we went to school. While your mama, is the woman that once existed in uncle's heart. The woman who filled the emptiness of uncle's heart. Until something finally happened. Where we, uncle, papa and mamu are at odds with each other for some reason. (Silent)

Andrew: is it because papa and mama have a relationship? Love triangle? Infidelity or something else?

Brian: (smiling looking at Andrew) is not just a face, it seems like your character is also the same as your father Andrew. Can't be patient and keep pushing people. All right, uncle will continue. My uncle's family was in trouble. Uncle's family went bankrupt, and at the same time your mama betrayed uncle. Cheating with your dad. Until finally time brought uncle to meet your aunt who was in trouble with your father Abed. We worked together and we ended up close. Since then uncle has forgotten the memories of the past, and to be honest even though the pain is still there uncle always tries not to hold a grudge to your father and mother. Uncle moved to America and didn't hear from your mother's father, until one day we met again on business. And at that time your mother was pregnant with you. I don't know what possessed your father, your father was rude to your mother and you had to be born early. Your aunt was a victim when she helped your mother, which is why you and Lovely were born on the same day. And uncle reported your father to the police after bringing in a pretty solid piece of evidence. Your mother's father separated, uncle gave shelter to your mother. And that's where your mama knew your father Abed, in short your mama and Abed's dad got married and lived happily. Until one day a great disaster comes. You were kidnapped, you and Lovely were kidnapped by two different people. Good thing your papa brought you back, and you know who kidnapped you? He is the biological father of Adit. Again your father has to deal with the police. Go into the prison. Apparently your papa is not deterred, someone deliberately came to free your papa and make it hot. That someone took a grudge against me and your father Abed because our sister died. That person is Felix Collyn. Aunt Mely's husband. Felix was blinded by affection and used your papa. Influencing your father to commit a crime, your father forced your mother and Abed's father to separate, at which time your mother was pregnant. Again your father makes trouble, mwnciknikmu makes your mama worried. Your father Abed is trying to save you and fight criminals. Didn't expect to be in the same location as your mom. I don't know what happened between your mom and your dad, your mom fell down the stairs and was bleeding. Your mama's dead. Because your father Abed's emotions and wrath killed your biological father. Your father was punished according to his actions. And we were the ones who took care of you back then. This is the real story of Andrew. Amelia's uncle and aunt were witnesses at the time. Your father Abed was guilty of killing your father. But your father Abed has served his sentence, hasn't he?

Andrew: so is that? I understand uncle. Thank you for explaining to me.

Abed: are you mad at papa?

Andrew: (looking at Abed) angry? Sure didn't. Maybe if I were in papa's position I would do the same. Papa calm down there, I'm not angry and hate papa.

Brian: uncle knows it's hard for you to digest Andrew but remember, never fall in the same hole. Listen to your heart, and don't listen to what others say. Others only know how to judge our outsides, but only ourselves can make decisions. What is best for ourselves. I hope you really understand what Uncle Andrew means.

Andrew: yes uncle I understand.

Brian: no human being is perfect. We all have mistakes and a past. Is it because we have done something wrong that we should hate or stay away from? Should we insult and insult this person? If we do that, what difference do we make with it? We just need to take him on a better path. Give support and encouragement so that he rises from his mass. So that he can change his person into a better and wiser person.

(In Andrew's heart)

Ah. (sighs) everything uncle Brian said was the right thing. Andrew come on. Don't let your mind be filled with bad things. Let's think clearly. After all, Papa Abed was the one who took care of you since childhood. The man who raised you. It's screwed! This is really screwing me up! (But in the heart)

Brian: calm your mind Andrew. Don't think too hard, everything needs a process. Slow down, you have to learn to accept all of this with chest space. Okay well?

Andrew: yes uncle. I-i understand.

Brian: you can go back and rest Andrew. There's something important that uncle wants to talk to your father about. Thank you Andrew, you want to listen to uncle's explanation.

Andrew: good uncle, Andrew excuse me.

Abed: we'll be bicada again. Papa will meet you in the room.

Andrew: okay. (smile).

Andrew stood up and left Abed's study. His feelings are mixed. On the other hand his heart was upset, and on the other hand his heart was relieved. His mind started to go awry, Andrew managing his breathing, trying to digest all of Brian's explanations. Andrew sped up his steps walking towards the room.
